Thanks for the validation.  I was a little concerned that my message 
wasn't clear - it wasn't enjoying my most coherent of writing days.  :)

98%, eh?  If you care to share (and you can), what kind of business 
is it and what are their requirements?  I'd say a 98% level is a huge 
success story for Linux and I'm interested in exploring that more if 
I may.  My own business is probably less than 20% Linux although we 
could be using more FOSS on our Windows boxes.
